How this scam type works
From our Lottery & Prize Scams guide.
- You 'won'. A letter, email, or phone call tells you you've won a major prize.
- Pay a small fee. Taxes, processing, customs — always something small to 'release' the winnings.
- The fee escalation. More and more fees are required. Some victims are drained over months or years.
- No prize. Nothing ever arrives. Some victims are then sold to 'recovery' scammers.
